The next item on our Agenda was to distribute another portion of the Funds we received from BC Gaming under our Funding grant.

This donation was $2,500.00 to Metro Kids Society to fund their Saturday morning program which serves 150 kids each week. These children are at risk children living in the inner city area of Surrey.

Super Saturday Kids Klub is an action packed program specifically designed for all kids, including those with a short attention span.

This TV-Gameshow style format is filled with exciting music, games and contests. The final 20 minutes of the 60 minute program is a time of teaching and building into the lives of  many under privileged kids.

The themes of the teaching times consist of the basic morals any parent or society would like built into their children. We teach about topics such as loving one another, respecting authority, obeying your parents, and helping the needy.

Every child receives a weekly personal home visit by our approved Kids Klub workers.

In addition to this, each child is picked up by one of our buses each week from their home and taken to our Kids Klub Program.

Mike Brownlee Program Director joined us for supper and accepted the donation on behalf of Metro Kids. for more information here is their web link   www.metrokids.ca
